Mangaluru, Sept 25: The funeral prayers of Mohammad Sameer who was allegedly murdered a month after returning from Saudi Arabia was held today at Ganjimutt village on the outskirts of Mangalur city. Hundreds of people including his relatives, friends and villagers took part in the funeral.

The tragic end

35-year-old Sameer, son of Ahmed Saheb, a resident of J M Road near Ganjimutt, Edapadavu, had returned home from Saudi Arabia on August 17 this year, almost two months after his wife Firdous gave birth to their first child.

Sameer, who worked in Saudi Arabia for almost a decade wanted to spend rest of his life in India. On September 13 he went to Bengaluru along with his wife and three-month-old child for a job interview. The couple stayed there together for a couple of days. He had spoken to his mother over the phone on September 15 and everything seemed fine till then.

However, on September 18, Firdous and her daughter returned to her parent’s house at Kaup in Udupi district. She claimed that Sameer deserted her and her child and went with another woman.

On September 20, Sameer’s father lodged a missing complaint with jurisdictional Bajpe police station. The cops then had expressed suspicion about the version of Firdous.

The missing case took a new turn when Sameer’s dead body was found under the limits of Devadanapatti police station in Tamil Nadu’s Madurai district on September 23.

Wife is prime suspect

It is suspected that Sameer's wife Firdous has an extra marital affair with a person named Asif from Karkala, who was working as a driver in Bengaluru. The two are absconding since the recovery of Sameer’s body.

According to Bajpe police inspector Parashivamurthy, the enquiry into the murder case will be conducted by the Devadanapatti police station and that the local police will extend complete support.

The post-mortem of Sameer's body was conducted in Tamil Nadu. The body was transported to his hometown through an ambulance.

Inn Lillahi Wa Inn Elahi Rajiyoon,

Since the Culprits belong to one community - must be punished as per Isalamic Sharia in public. So no one dare to commit such crime again.

Then only all can lead a peace full life.

Bengaluru, Jul 9: Bringing to the fore the dangers frontline workers face in combating the deadly coronavirus, 395 policemen have tested positive for the infection since the outbreak of the pandemic in Bengaluru. This includes five deaths, Inspector General of Police and Additional Commissioner of Police (Administration) Hemant Nimbalkar told media persons.

He said as of Thursday, 190 have been cured while 200 are under treatment. Twenty police stations have been sealed, he added.

He claimed the Bengaluru police has suffered the most compared to any department, organisation or institution because the force is deployed in the field and dealing with the situation.

The infection among police is highest despite training being given to them on how to protect themselves from the coronavirus.

According to him, every morning duty charter is given to the police personnel where they are told how to avoid getting the infection and handle the situation if they find symptoms of coronavirus.

"Despite taking all the precautions, infection in our department is high because we are the ones who are on the road.

We are meeting hundreds of people whom we don't know, whether they are Covid infected or not," Nimbalkar said.

Along with the policemen, their families too are at risk of contracting the virus.

An assistant sub-inspector at VV Puram police station was the first casualty in the Bengaluru police on June 13.

A heart patient, who was on leave due to ill health, he collapsed at home and died.
